Vite (French: [vit], like "veet") is a local development server backed by VoidZero Inc.[2] Vite was written by Evan You, the creator of Vue.js. It has support for TypeScript and JSX. It uses Rolldown internally for bundling.[3]
Vite monitors files as they are being edited and upon file save the web browser reloads the code being edited through a process called Hot Module Replacement (HMR)[4] which works by just reloading the specific file being changed using ES6 modules (ESM) instead of recompiling the entire application.
Vite provides built-in support for server-side rendering (SSR). By default, it listens on TCP port 5173.[5] It is possible to configure Vite to serve content over HTTPS and proxy requests (including WebSocket) to a back-end web server, such as Apache HTTP Server or lighttpd.
Features and performance
[edit]Vite has a Hot Module Replacement (HMR) system, which reduces wait times during development. Vite supports frameworks such as React, Vue, and Svelte, and has server-side rendering (SSR), code-splitting, and asynchronous loading.
Viteconf
[edit]Viteconf is an event that hosts talks about frontend tooling.[6] The conventions in 2022,[7][6] 2023,[8] and 2024,[9] were held online. In October 2025, the first in-person Viteconf was held in Amsterdam.[10][11]
